Floyd’s arrest report states that back in 2010 around 2:30 a.m., Harris got home and saw Floyd talking to two of their sons. The former couple got into a verbal argument, causing Harris to call the police. When the police arrived on the scene Floyd left, but he returned to Harris’ place at 5:00 a.m. with his friend James McNair.
According to Harris, she woke up shocked to see Floyd standing over her while reading text messages on a cell phone. He asked if she had a boyfriend and she admitted that she was dating someone, and that’s when she said he began beating on her. Floyd allegedly told her, “I’m going to kill you and the man you’re messing with” while he hit her in the back of the head and pulled her off the couch by her hair.
The report also states that one of their sons witnessed the violent incident and ran to a friend’s house for help, who called the police.
In a later interview with Katie Couric, Floyd said that the allegations were false and that Harris was on drugs. Harris would do an interview with Yahoo!‘s Martin Rogers in 2013 wherein she accused Floyd of purposefully hitting her in the back of the head so that people wouldn’t be able to see her bruises, but that she had a contusion and a concussion. The incident report read that Harris had “redness on her face and a large contusion to the right side of her forehead and chin.” Floyd completed 60 days of his 90 day jail sentence and was released.
